Manage Access parameters provide the access credentials (user name and password), as well as the preferred IP address, port, and method for connecting to the device from n-Command® MSP. Each set of parameters can be managed in a central location and applied to any number of devices on the network.
Use the following steps to add a new set of Manage Access parameters:
From the Devices tab, select Manage Access from the menu.
Select New from the Device Access dialog box.
Select the text in the Name field and enter a new name for this item.
Select the Access Credentials from the drop-down menu. If the credentials needed are not listed, refer to Adding New Access Credentials to create a new set.
Select the IP Address check box if a specific IP address needs to be supplied and enter the IP address in the blank field provided. If this is not necessary, skip to Step 7.
If necessary, enter the port number to use.
Select the Method to use, either HTTP or HTTPS.
Select Save to add the new parameters.
Additional tasks can be performed from the Device Access menu, such as changing the default, removing a set of parameters, or editing them as necessary.
To change the default parameters, select the set of parameters from the list on the left and choose Set Default. Only one set of parameters can be used as the default. There must always be one set of parameters set as the default, and the default cannot be deleted.
To delete a set of parameters, select the name of the access parameters from the list on the left and select Delete. Confirm the prompt by choosing Yes.
To edit a set of parameters, select the name of the access parameters from the list on the left and make the necessary changes. Select Save once the all changes are completed.
